Behind The Lens

Location

The photo as anybody can se is a composit and it was taken at different dates for this purpose.

Time

No time especially

Lighting

Because this is a composit and I whant it to look “realistic “ I chose to shoot in studio lighting.

Equipment

My camera at the time was a Canon 600 D with a 80 mm lens

Inspiration

Mani of my photography is inspired by the great masters off art like Magrit, and Dali

Editing

Because this is a composit there is a lot of post-processing envolve in this picture, I try to get the colours, the shadows and proportions right.

In my camera bag

I don’t have so much equipment doe to the fact that I really can’t afford it, so at the moment and for a long wail I have a Canon 6D a Sigma 12-24 mm a 50 mm Canon and a 35 mm Sigma. I also have some ND filters from Lee.

Feedback

Try to studi the masters of art the surrealist artis has got a lot to show you learn how they use the light and the symbolism. What ever you do keep it simple.
